I still have to watch that! I was planning on it when someone mentioned it before in this thread, but I quickly realized it wasn't on netflix so my options were limited. I think you have to pay extra for it on hulu or something?

Just saw Dsp's tweet about playing Scottie Pippen's Slam City and it occurred to me that he hasn't done a playthrough of the GOAT rpg, otherwise known as Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden. I'd imagine it'd be a good downtime game, at the very least.

Yeah I don't really get this either. If he truly didn't like the game as much as he's said, then why continue to play it? Actively refusing to touch the game would get his point across just as much as his rant video did, imo. But spending so much time describing the game's pitfalls and then waking up the next day to hop right into it is just confusing to me. Like, does he hope that Urien will be the games saving grace or something? I don't get Dsp sometimes.

I can't find any mention of Willemete being bombed, only that the special forces wiped out all forms of life and that it was sealed off from the public.
However, according to the wiki the incident caused The Willemete Act to be passed, which may be the protocol they use for Dead Rising 2 and further.
"According to game dialogue not found in the final version of Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, after the Willamette Incident, the United States enacted the Willamette Act, that presumably outlines the measures to be taken in case of a major outbreak, such as in Las Vegas. In Rebecca Chang's original broadcast that is to be heard in the beginning of Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, she mentions that the President has initiated the Willamette Act, that has the government scrambling the military and setting up a 50-mile perimeter."
